Towing Accessories & Adapters – What You Should Have in Your Kit
Having the right accessories and adapters can make towing safer and more convenient. Here are common questions about Husky’s towing add-ons:
What adapters does Husky offer? Husky offers fifth wheel-to-gooseneck adapters, ball mounts, drop/rise hitches, and pintle hooks. These help ensure compatibility between your trailer and hitch setup.
Do I need a sway control bar with my setup? If you experience side-to-side movement while towing, a sway control bar is recommended. Husky offers both integrated sway control (with weight distribution systems) and standalone sway control bars.
What is a hitch extender and when would I need one? A hitch extender increases the distance between your vehicle and trailer, useful when you need clearance for tailgates or spare tires. Keep in mind that extenders can reduce overall towing capacity.
Are all Husky towing accessories universal? Not all. While many accessories fit standard 2" receivers, always check size and weight ratings before purchasing. Husky provides detailed compatibility guides with their products.
Can I use multiple accessories at once? In some cases, yes, but stacking adapters (like a drop hitch with an extender and anti-sway) can compromise safety. Only use combinations recommended by the manufacturer.
Conclusion: From extenders and sway bars to adapters and couplers, the right towing accessories make all the difference. Husky’s lineup ensures you can build the perfect towing solution for your unique setup.
